A Wedding for Christmas?

Since I live in snow-plagued Buffalo & I've worked way too many retail holiday seasons, the idea of having a Christmas/Winter-themed wedding wouldn't exactly be my first pick.

Despite this prejudice, the festive feel of the holidays is fantastic for off-the-beaten path wedding style, and if you can get a discount for doing things off-season, I wouldn't blame you for warming up to a December wedding!

There are some really adorable ideas out there!
Churches are never more beautiful than they are at Christmastime; plus the decorations are already done for you!Take full advantage of the reception venue's Christmas decor too!Dress picks from Jim Hjelm and Monique Lhuillier:

I heart sleeves and lace!
Perfect affordable accessories from Alfred Angelo and David's Bridal!

Loving the vintage glam!
Dreaming of a white wedding...
Red amaryllis or white amaryllis bouquet?
I can't resist a hand-tied red anemone bouquet!

So pretty!
Years ago, I thought my wedding colors should be aqua and red! Now I hate red at weddings, except for when it's season-appropriate! And it's just not Christmas without red!
Perfect bridesmaid look!


Love the accent of blush! Reminds me of pink poinsettias!
Fur stole and birdcage veil! Yes please!
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to You and Yours!
See you in 2011!
